No, you don't have to ride 600 miles.....
Join us for the 2026
Tiki 600 Mile Challenge
February 18th, 19th and 20th, 2026
Ride Hard. Give Back. Be Legendary
The miles per day a sledder can ride varies on many different things. The average rider rides about 40-60 miles in one day, the more experienced rider can push 100-150 per day. It takes a rider with years of experience to ride 200 miles in one day. Riding 200 miles over three consecutive days will be a big challenge. To ride 600 miles in three days means the riders will have to endure any type of trail condition and weather, limited breaks and pushing themselves and their sleds to the limit.
The ride will include solo and team riders . The teams will be backed up by chase team who will always be within range of the sledders in case they are need. This is NOT A RACE however, it will be a huge endurance test of the team members, their sleds and equipment of riders.
In 2026 the Tiki 600-mile challenge will be a 100-mile loop on the east side of 906 (see map below). Riders will start/check-in at the Sno Shu Inn, ride the course and check out at the Sno Shu Inn. 100 mile check-ins will be required for social media productions. Rides/Teams can run the loop any time after they check-in. However, support will only be provided from 8am to 8pm on Thursday and Friday. You can ride one or both days. A warming station will be provided at the Sho Shu Inn.

FELLOW SLEDDERS,
Welcome to the 2nd Annual Tiki 600 Mile Challenge.
February 18th, 19th and 20th.
Tiki is accepting applications for solo and team riders.
While we call it the Tiki 600 mile Challenge, riders/teams are not required to ride 600 miles. Riders/Teams set a goal in 100 increments and seek pledges based on your goal. Like a walk-a-thon on snowmobiles. Heck, you can shoot for 1000 if you like.
All riders are required to bring sponsorship or pledges of not less than $1000.00.
Ideally, riders should find a sponsor and raise pledges for as much as they possibly can.
Tiki will help with sponsorship packages and pledging info.
